Reborn as a Mortal Heiress Pampered by Big Shots-Chapter 531 - 316 Son-in-law Xiaojiang falls off the horse!_3

Mr. Borden capriciously poured the freshly brewed coffee his secretary made down the sink and demanded they hurry up and bring tea instead.

After all, it was only proper to serve tea in the presence of a friend from China.

Now he looked carefully at the designs, one by one...Indeed, they were no common pieces...

He had indeed been very rude just now, completely ignoring Xu He’s words. If only he had seen them earlier, it wouldn’t have come to this...

Xu He sat composedly at the side, and she had to admit that with Xiaojiang here, her heart felt at ease. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

Even though Mr. Borden had not yet mentioned anything related to Baoli Fashion Week, she felt very relieved.

Mr. Borden excitedly discussed the drafts with Jiang Xuan, as though a poet had discovered a poem he tremendously liked.

Mr. Borden appeared to be about the same age as Jiang Jiujue and obviously spanned a generation from Jiang Xuan, but their conversation was extremely familiar and natural, like friends who forget their age.

Jiang Xuan casually responded to Mr. Borden, inadvertently glancing at Xu He and caught her looking back at him.

The future mother-in-law’s eyes were shining brightly.

Jiang Xuan politely flashed her a smile.

He didn’t need to see her expression, as Jiang Xuan had already read all the changes in her mindset just now.

He hadn’t planned on revealing his identity so soon, but now it seemed there were advantages to it.

Now, Mr. Borden, realizing his oversight, was a bit sour, "J, you’re so inconsiderate. How many times have I asked for your designs before? You refused every time, saying you had no interest in fashion design, and now...you..."

He nodded toward Xu He, then whispered gossipingly with a lower voice, "What exactly is your relationship with Ms. Xu here?"

Leaning back leisurely in the chair, Jiang Xuan said, "I am dating her daughter. She’s a girlfriend I pursued with great difficulty, so I would appreciate it if you would be a little more courteous to her."

There was an implication in his words, and Mr. Borden grinned, "Quite the temper you have. Had I known about her connection to you, I would’ve invited her in right away."

Xu He very appropriately said it didn’t matter, that it was her own presumptuous request.

"Not presumptuous at all!" Mr. Borden waved his hands, "Ms. Xu has such an elegant aura; no wonder J is fond of your daughter. I must meet your precious daughter sometime."

As one could imagine, Xu He’s wish to display Jiang Xuan’s ten pieces of clothing at this spring Baoli Fashion Week was easily settled by Mr. Borden.

He was already an extremely headstrong old rascal; he didn’t need to hesitate over things he liked.

Never mind ten designs; he would be more than happy if all the outfits for the fashion week were designed by J, as that would truly add luster to the event.

What seemed an impossible task became a done deal with just a few joking words between them.

Mr. Borden personally escorted them out. Once they were outside his office, Jiang Xuan courteously allowed Xu He to walk ahead.

Xu He nodded with a smile, "Xiaojiang, I really owe you one today."

"Not at all," Jiang Xuan said, "The design fee Mrs. Xia paid earlier has been transferred to your daughter’s account."

Xu He was taken aback, then suddenly pressed her lips together in a smile.

She hadn’t expected Xiaojiang to be so considerate. She was becoming more and more fond of Xiaojiang as her daughter’s boyfriend, but she decided not to say it out loud, to avoid making Xiaojiang arrogant.

Little did she know, Jiang Xuan had read it all.

The bodyguards waiting outside, upon seeing their guests escorted out personally by Mr. Borden, were more baffled than the other.

Thinking back on how they had treated Ms. Xu earlier, they were now scratching their heads and apologizing to her one after another.

Xu He nodded and laughed it off, saying she didn’t mind.

Jiang Xuan had brought Dong Mao with him to O Country this time since the tasks were different from usual.

By the time they came out, Dong Mao’s car was already waiting there.

Jiang Xuan told him to drive to the hotel that Xu He’s assistant had booked.

At the hotel room door, they ran into the assistant carrying the luggage.

Because the luggage contained important items, the assistant didn’t dare to pack it alone and specially waited for Xu He’s return.

Xu He thanked Jiang Xuan, "It’s enough to get me here, you both should get going for your busy schedules."

But it was clear that Jiang Xuan hadn’t intended to just bring her back. Even though it was a five-star hotel, it didn’t meet Jiang Xuan’s standards for hosting a future mother-in-law.

Having promised the little tyrant he would take good care of her mother, he intended to do so.

Jiang Xuan nodded at the assistant who didn’t yet understand what was going on and said, "Pack up Mrs. Xia’s luggage and take it to another hotel."

The assistant said that what she had was all the luggage, "But...the hotel payment here is already settled..."

Without further discussion, Jiang Xuan took the luggage from the assistant’s hand and commanded, "Dong Mao, change the hotel for Mrs. Xia and her assistant..."
